Is the Waterford distillery the place the was featured last year on RTEs Ear to the Ground . They sourced barley from a coastal field in Wexford . Fascinating

Does this mean there’s no need for pesticides?

Yes that’s the same one. It’s focused on terroir so it will source barley from numerous different farms in the south east. Coastal barley will have a salty tang and inland barley will lead to an earthy whiskey. In addition they have masses of top quality French carrels in storage to age the whiskey.

They get a few local women like ursula Jacob to sing at the fields, it scares the bugs away.

A frozen shtone.
Thas one of them gift packs with the two single malt miniatures?
No, the stone was a gift, I’m working my way through the 750ml of green spot as I type. The stone was getting warm though, its back in the freezer, can’t keep up with my pace.
the shtone is a game changer, I got a present of them a few years ago

Chilled to the correct temperature, a soapstone or soapstone equivalent keeps the drink at a perfect temperature while absorbing no flavor and never diluting the whiskey. Amazing its taken lads so long to figure this out.
